Daily Prompt: Blogger in a Strange Land (The Daily Post)

As a WordPress blogger and an avid abolitionist of M.Y.O.B. (just kidding), I have been in strange lands all the time. In lands similar to that of Chewandswallow and Mirkwood. But let’s keep it simple. In the ancient days of the Imagination Igloo, I was in the strangest land I’ve ever been in. That land? A mistake of an island called Sandy Island. You see, in the 1900s, I believe, cartographers made the mistake of putting this nonexistent Sandy Island on their maps. Since the island was always on the maps, Sandy Island appeared on even Google Maps. So I took matters in my own hands differently, when I should have said, “Shame on you, Google Maps. You’ve just wrecked your reputation.” I thought, what if Sandy Island really existed? I created my own world where magic and a subspecies of Homo sapiens existed. Where fairies fluttered and unicorns galloped, where mermaids swam. Here’s the link to the unfinished story I wrote about the Island: https://lunasimaginationigloo.wordpress.com/2013/09/11/untitled-story-part-1/

Shall I tell you of another land I’ve been to? It’s not as strange as Sandy Island, but it would be were it not for a civilization of bloggers flourishing by the whole milk and cream river like the Sumerians in Mesopotamia. In one of my posts, I attacked the RD October issue cover story. It was about the debate on what will save obesity: Big Mac or Big Organic. Now you’d think, “Who are the idiots who are making a big fuss on this? Big Organic, duh!” Actually, there’s more than meets the eye.

The Eight Commenting Commandments

1. No trolling, bullying, or bringing up arbitrary topics unrelated to the post.
2. Be as nice and respectful as you would in person.
3. Refrain from asking questions about a post/page when the answer can already be found in the post/page.
4. You can say hello if you know me in person, but don't bring up anything personal things about me, as I am a private person. If you don't know me, please don't ask personal things either.
5. Follow basic spelling, punctuation, and grammar.
6. No promoting blogs or bribing me to do something so that the Imagination Igloo can get promoted. It's nice of you, but I would rather not. If you nominate me for a blogging award, I will happily accept.
7. The Igloo opens its doors to everyone, which means kids and precocious babies can read it too. Keep your language kid friendly.
8. Refrain from discrimination of any sort.
